Fast Changes on the Rings
OneUp Components Launch the Switch
OneUp Components is well known for their aftermarket chainrings, cassette expanders, and other drivetrain add-ons. Now, they've launched a new quick-change system for chain rings called Switch. Designed to make swaps simple, it means riders and mechanics will be able to change out rings with just a 4mm allen key, and not have to keep track of proprietary tools. Get all the info after the break.
A quick-change direct mount chainring system from OneUp Components.
Switch was developed to reduce the cost of replacement chainrings, increase compatibility with new offsets and to make the process of changing a chainring much faster and simpler. Switch also makes it easier for local bike shops to cover the ever-growing number of chainring standards, without a huge investment in inventory.
A Switch chainring is the same price as our existing direct mount chainrings, but the ring and carrier can be replaced individually at a fraction of the cost.
ALL the Major Mounting Standard, Sizes and Offsets in both Round and Oval
(130 Direct Mount Ring Combinations)
5 Direct Mount Standards (SRAM, Race Face,
Cannondale, E13 and Hope)
5 Ring Sizes (28-36T)
2 Profiles (Round and Oval)
3 Offsets (Regular, Boost and Super Boost)
Switch math: 5 direct mount standards x 5 ring sizes x 2 ring profiles x 3 offsets = 130 Ring configurations.
EWS Proven
Every EWS World Champion in the last 3 years has pedalled their way to series victory on a OneUp narrow wide chainring.
One Tool
Many of the tools required to remove some cranks aren't part of a basic home tool kit and are definitely not on your multitool. Cannondale, E13 and Hope cranksets all require proprietary tools to replace their chainrings. Swap a Switch chainring with just a 4mm allen key
Not
Another Standard
The two-piece system is the most efficient way to handle the expanding number of chainring standards. It is not a new standard in itself. With quick-change rings and a cheaper replacement cost, Switch has some real benefits over a one-piece chainring. At the same price as our old design, what's not to like?

Innovative I guess, but it takes all of five minutes to swap a ring on either my Race Face or SRAM direct mount setups. Seems like a solution looking for a problem.
